Flour-Business in the movement of flour
was reported fair to-day with moderate in
quiry for new business. The drop III wheat
during few days passed checked INQUIRY to
some extent and weakened the market for
forward delivery. There is still very good
demand for old wheat -four and it is doubtful
if a drop in the marker for new -four deliver
able in future months would cause an equal
decline in the old stock as the latter is re-
gafded with particular favor.
Bran and Shorts-The bran market is in
pretty good form with millers quoting their
production at S9.25@9.75. Shorts quoted
$40 25@1I.25 and some lots claimed to he
especially choice, are held above outside fig
ureS.
Corn-Held at 39@39rsc for good samples
to arrive, with very little doingjust now
Oats-Are selling steadily at 25025s4c for
fair to good No. 2, with white going 25@
26I2c.
Barley-Is selling at 5C@55c for ordinary
lots of good sound well cleaned pump grain
fairly bright. Inferior difficult to dispose of
while very choice bright stock might sell a
few cents above outside quotations.
Flaxseed-Sales at $1.02
= Mixed Feed-The market quiet and steady
at 4.25@14.75 ON track; $15@15.50 de-
liveredi in town or on board cars to go out
Hay-This market rs unsettled with dealers
quoting all the way from S8.50@11 as the
price of good hay. The market Is getting
bare of good stock and unless receipts pick
up, prices are expected in few days to reach
above $40, as retailers will begin to get short
of stocks to meet current requirements.
